Petitions built criterion by criterion.

Each exhibit is mapped to the criterion it proves before the argument is drafted, and every judgment call is left for your attorney. Shown with placeholder content; client matters stay confidential.

Two different legal tests

EB-1A criteria are not NIW prongs, so the drafts are built differently.

How we structure each petition type. Strategy, criterion selection and every legal judgment remain your attorney’s.

EB-1A: criterion by criterion

The petition must evidence at least three of the ten regulatory criteria in 8 CFR 204.5(h)(3), or a one-time major internationally recognised award, and then survive a final merits determination of sustained acclaim. We draft each claimed criterion as its own argument with its own exhibits, then the final merits section on top.

  • Lesser nationally or internationally recognised prizes or awards
  • Membership in associations requiring outstanding achievement
  • Published material about the beneficiary
  • Judging the work of others
  • Original contributions of major significance
  • Authorship of scholarly articles
  • Display at artistic exhibitions or showcases
  • Leading or critical role for distinguished organisations
  • High salary or remuneration
  • Commercial success in the performing arts

EB-2 NIW: the three Dhanasar prongs

Matter of Dhanasar, 26 I&N Dec. 884 (AAO 2016), replaced the earlier framework with three prongs. The draft is organised around them, with the proposed endeavor defined first because every prong depends on it.

Prong 1
The proposed endeavor has both substantial merit and national importance
Prong 2
The beneficiary is well positioned to advance the proposed endeavor
Prong 3
On balance, it would benefit the United States to waive the job offer and labor certification requirements

Why immigration attorneys call us

The bottleneck is rarely strategy. It is the draft.

Immigration firms rarely lose time on judgment. They lose evenings on assembly: the exhibit index, the fifth recommendation letter, the RFE that lands in a week of hearings.

01

Volume arrives in waves

Three NIW clients sign in the same fortnight and the calendar has no room for any of them. Hiring for the peak leaves you carrying the trough.

02

Evidence outruns the argument

Hundreds of pages of publications, citations and letters, and the real work is connecting each one to the criterion it proves without a broken cross-reference.

03

RFEs land at the worst time

The response has to re-argue the record inside the deadline, without contradicting a word of the original filing.

Scope boundaries

Work for the attorney, never around them.

We do

  • Draft petitions, letters and RFE responses for your review
  • Map and index the evidence
  • Flag weak or missing evidence early
  • Work inside your template and systems

We do not

  • Advise or contact petitioners unless you ask us to
  • Appear before USCIS or sign anything
  • Guarantee or predict approvals
  • Market to anyone you introduce us to
